Chapter 402 Cornell Lach

"Who is it? Jade?"

Nathan looked at Barry, feeling very confused.

Barry shook his head and said, "It's not General Perkins. She doesn't have time to

come here and wander around."

Nathan said, "Just tell me who it is."

"Cornell Lach." Barry coughed and said.

Nathan frowned. Of course, he was familiar with this name.

Cornell was a relative of the Evans family and didn't get along well with Nathan. When Nathan and his father were kicked out of Imperia City, the Lach family was delighted. The Evans family was big, and it was inevitable that some people would have other thoughts. Therefore, Nathan and Nicolas had to play tricks to deceive everyone. Cornell was also fooled and definitely not on the same side as Nathan and Nicolas. However, Cornell was very capable. Since joining the army, he had shown

extraordinary talent. And with the background of the

Evans family, his career was very successful.

And now, Cornell was already a Colonel.

Nathan and Barry quickly arrived at the training ground of Sharp Knife Company and

saw Cornell standing upright in the field.

After Cornell saw Nathan, his face turned cold immediately.

Nathan wasn't friendly to him either. Cornell spoke ill of Nicolas and was also

responsible for their exile.

The soldiers all looked at Cornell coldly. Cornell had just come to the training ground and taught them a lesson.

"Are you sure you're the best of the 81st Division? That's it?" Cornell deliberately

raised his voice and sneered after Nathan arrived.

The soldiers of the Sharp Knife Company were all blushing, slightly annoyed, but they were embarrassed to refute.

Before Nathan arrived, Cornell competed with them. And in the end, they were all defeated, and they were no match for him at all.

In the army, strength was everything. Since Cornell could beat them up, they certainly didn't have the right to be angry.

Cornell sneered. "It seems that your instructor is a piece of trash. You're not bad, but you fought poorly. What a waste!"

"Salute!"

When the company commander saw Barry and Nathan coming over, he shouted immediately.

All the soldiers saluted the two of them.

Nathan waved his hands and said, "At ease. What's going on?"

The commander blushed and said, "Sir, this is Colonel from the War Department. He's

in charge of testing the training result of each unit."

"We performed too badly. Colonel Lach taught us a lesson."

"Our performance humiliated the 81st Division!"

Barry felt a bit uneasy. Although Cornell was here for Nathan, he used the Sharp Knife

Company as an excuse and even made the entire 81st Division ashamed. Barry was certainly unhappy.

Cornell looked at Nathan and said, "Are you their instructor? How dare you waste their

talent?"

The subordinates brought by Cornell also laughed.

They didn't know why this young man had become a brigadier general, but apparently,

he didn't seem powerful at all. He probably joined the army in some other way. Nathan looked at Cornell indifferently. "Lach, I didn't expect you to come to Mimar City. How impressive."

Cornell said lightly, "An exile like you should stay in that deserted prison like a rat. You shouldn't come here to fool the others. Even if you became a brigadier by flattering, you're still just a joke."

Cornell was annoyed. He had joined the military for many years and was still a

colonel.

However, as soon as Nathan joined the army, he was awarded the rank of brigadier by the War Department!

"Huh. As an exile, I can become a brigadier by flattering. But you can't even have this chance. You're worse than an exile." Nathan looked at Cornell and smiled faintly. Cornell's eyes turned cold.

Nathan said, "Don't you know how to salute when you see your superior?"

Cornell was full of disdain. "Your rank is indeed a little higher than mine. But do you

think you're worthy of my respect?"

"I could kick you and your father

out of Emperia City, and I can also kick you out of the army if I want to."

"Why do you think I should salute such a loser like you?"

The soldiers of the Sharp Knife Company couldn't help being angry. They knew

Nathan's ability, but at this moment, they still felt upset when someone humiliated their respected instructor.

However, it was useless to be upset. Cornell was a colonel and held an important

position, so they couldn't afford to offend him.

Plus, they were indeed crushed by him just now, so they didn't dare to challenge him

at all.

Facing Cornell's humiliation, Nathan looked very calm, as if he didn't take Cornell seriously.

He faced Cornell like facing a barking dog.

"Mr. Martin, as the ace unit under the War Department, the 81st Division should be

better than this!"

"Especially the Sharp Knife Company."

"I tested many soldiers of the Sharp Knife Company, and all of them were trash. So

there must be something wrong with the instructor you chose."

"After today, I will report the situation, submit an application, and change an instructor

for you."

Cornell said with a cold face. His purpose in coming here was to kick Nathan out and replace a way to get him fired.

After all, he was only a senior colonel. How could an exile like Nathan have a higher

rank than him?

Being the instructor of the Sharp Knife Company of the 81st Division was Nathan's

first job. If he couldn't do it well, Thunder might be unable to save him.

Nathan felt ridiculous. "Why?"

Cornell said indifferently, "I don't like you. That's all."

Nathan was stunned. This was indeed a good reason.

He would punch or slap someone if he didn't like that person.

Cornell's words sounded exactly like when he bullied his classmates in school. "However, if you are willing to kneel and apologize to Hugh for your rudeness and swear allegiance to me, I might consider letting you go."

Cornell said arrogantly. "Remember, you are no longer a member of the Evans family.

It was your honor when someone from the Evans family came to replace you and asked

you to compromise!"

"If you remain stubborn, then you will suffer."

Nathan finally understood. Cornell came here because of the business war between

the Giradia Group and the Porter Group alliance.

Could it be that the Lach family had also invested several million in Natasha?
